Identification of Copy Number Variants as a Suspected Cause of Cerebral Small Vessel Disease
Whole‐exome sequencing of 111 patients with suspected familial cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) identified novel copy number variants in four patients across NOTCH3, LMNB1, and COL4A2, using bioinformatic and molecular techniques. These validated CNVs suggest structural variation is an underrecognized potential causal contributor to monogenic CSVD ...

Prenatal metachromatic leukodystrophy
In a family with a metachromatic leukodystrophy patient, two further pregnancies at risk were monitored by amnion cell culture. In one case, a normal baby was predicted and born. In the other case, a prenatal deficiency of arylsulfatase A was found.

Pathogenic variants alter hepaCAM protein distribution. Astrocyte‐specific hepaCAM TurboID reveals KCNQ2 as a new interaction partner. Pathogenic variants alter hepaCAM association with key transmembrane proteins. ABSTRACT Megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts (MLC) is a rare leukodystrophy characterized by early‐onset macrocephaly,

Overview of genetic variants in a cohort of Iranian patients with leukodystrophy
Leukodystrophies are a number of rare genetic disorders that influence the white matter of the brain. The current study aimed to identify the underlying genetic cause of leukodystrophy in 14 Iranian cases, mainly presented by hypomyelinating ...

ABSTRACT U2 small nuclear RNA auxiliary factor 2 (U2AF2) is an essential pre‐mRNA splicing factor involved in the early stages of pre‐mRNA splicing. To date, multiple individuals have been reported with predominantly heterozygous missense variants presenting intellectual disability, speech and motor delays, seizures, hypotonia, and thin or hypoplastic ...
